Executive R&D Electronics

POSITION/ ROLE Executive R&D – Electronics (Design Validation and Reliability Engineer) LOCATIONFaridabad ROLE PURPOSE The Testing & Validation (DVP) Engineer will be responsible for planning, executing, and reporting Design Verification & Validation (DVV/DVP) activities for Air Conditioner products. The role ensures product reliability, safety, regulatory compliance, and field robustness before SOP and market launch. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES 1. DVP Planning & Ownership Prepare DVP&R (Design Verification Plan & Report) aligned with product requirements and standards. Define test strategy, scope, acceptance criteria, and timelines across development phases. Ensure coverage for functional, performance, reliability, environmental, safety, and regulatory tests. 2. Testing & Validation Execution Execute and coordinate testing for: o Functional & performance validation o Environmental & climatic tests (temperature, humidity, dust) o Reliability & endurance tests o Electrical safety & insulation tests o EMI/EMC precompliance and compliance tests Validate IDU, ODU, electronics, inverter systems, sensors, and controls. 3. Standards & Regulatory Compliance Ensure compliance with applicable standards: o BIS / IEC / IS standards o BEE / ISEER requirements o OEM / exportspecific standards where applicable Coordinate with NABL/accredited labs for thirdparty testing and certification. 4. Failure Analysis & CAPA Analyze test failures, deviations, and anomalies. Perform root cause analysis (RCA) in coordination with design teams. Track corrective and preventive actions (CAPA) to closure. Support DFMEA and risk mitigation activities. 5. CrossFunctional Coordination Work closely with Design (HW/SW/Mechanical), NPD/NPI, Quality, Manufacturing, and Supplier teams. Support pilot builds, line trials, and early production validation. Provide validation inputs during design reviews and gate releases. 6. Documentation & Reporting Prepare detailed test plans, test reports, deviation notes, and validation summaries. Maintain traceability between requirements, tests, and results. Support management reviews, audits, and certification submissions. 7. Lab & Test Infrastructure Support development and upkeep of testing setups, fixtures, jigs, and automation. Ensure proper calibration and compliance of test equipment. Contribute to continuous improvement of validation processes. ESSENTIAL ATTRIBUTES 1. Technical Skills Strong knowledge of DVP/DVV methodologies AC system testing: refrigeration cycle, electronics, inverter drives Environmental, reliability, EMI/EMC, and safety testing Data analysis and report writing Failure analysis techniques (5Why, Fishbone, FMEA) 2. Domain Knowledge Air Conditioner systems (IDU/ODU, controls, compressors, motors) Indian operating conditions and usage patterns Understanding of manufacturing and pilot validation needs 3. Behavioral Skills Strong analytical and problemsolving skills Attention to detail and documentation discipline Ability to work under tight development timelines Effective crossfunctional communication KEY DELIVERABLES / KPIS DVP completion on time and on quality Reduction in pilot and early field failures Firsttime passing rate in certification tests Robustness and repeatability of validation results WORK EXPERIENCE (In Years) > 4 Years QUALIFICATIONS REQUIRED B.E/BTech/ME/MTech (Electronics/E&C/E&TC/E&E/Mechatronics OPERATIONAL REPORTING Manager– Electronics (RAC)
